Don't Experiment.

Yon cannot afford to waste time in
experimenting when your lungs are in
danger. Consumption always seems at
first only cold. DO not permit any
dealer TO impose upon you with some
cheap imitation OF DR.. Kings New Dis
covery for Consumption, Coughs and
Colds, but be sure you get the genuine.
Because he can make more profit he may
tell you he has something just as good,
or Just the same. Don't be deceived,
but insist upon getting DR.. Kings New
Discovery which is guaranteed TO give
relief in all Throat, Lung and Chest
affections. Trial bottles free at j. G..

SOME time since, if we recollect Alright,
we intlmated i'm these columns that the
editor of the Charlestown Democrat Was
devoid of modesty or moderation. We
suppose we will have to recall those re-
marks, for in his last issue he shows the
most delicate modesty when he only
claims 95 per cent. Of the stay-at-homes
at the late election as anti.caucus men.
Many persons would have claimed them
all, but Jimmie don't-he generously
gives per cent. to the opposition.
Thanks, awfully!

Two towns in Virginia paid the pen
atty of being without fire appai atus
this week. OnancOck, in Accomac

fire, the principal buildings of the place
being burned. The village of Farnham,
near Richmond, was also swept by the
flames and two-thirds of its houses
burned down. The losses are very
heavy aud much distress been occa'
stoned. Shepherdstown can congratu'
late itself on having first class fire

One Of the most gigantic steals Of the
day was reported in the daily papers on
Tuesday. For three years the crews
on the freight trains Of the Panhandle
Railroad, running from Pittsburg to the
West, have been engaged in plundering
the cars they were transporting. Mer-
chandise of every possible description
was stolen, the thieves using what they
wanted and selling the balance. De-
tcctives finally got at the bottom of the
rascality, and on Monday arrested about
a hundred men-conductors, brakemen,
engineers and firemen-at whose houses
were found quantities of stolen goods.
The losses to the railroad company have
been enormous, so 1t will be pretty bad
business for the thieves.
